 ## how to deploy the initial config
 - Don't forget to install the bootloader, if you changed it since `nixos-install`
+- The fresh install has no flakes and no git yet, a temporary shell is enough
+- If the installer iso is older than the flake's nixpkgs, `--no-reexec` keeps
+  `nixos-rebuild` from re-executing a newer version of itself, which can fail
+  against the older systemd of the fresh install (only needed once)
+- Set a password for the user before rebooting, `users.nix` doesn't set one
 ```bash
-$ sudo nixos-rebuild --install-bootloader switch --flake .#host_name
+$ export NIX_CONFIG="experimental-features = nix-command flakes"
+$ nix-shell -p git
+$ sudo nixos-rebuild --install-bootloader boot --flake .#host_name --no-reexec
+$ sudo passwd aaron
+```
+
+## how to enable secure boot
+Secure Boot uses lanzaboote with our own keys, see `modules/nixos/lanzaboote.nix`.
+Do this after the initial config is deployed and boots.
+
+1. create the keys, before the first rebuild with the lanzaboote module
+```bash
+# the keys end up in /var/lib/sbctl, they never leave the host
+$ sudo nix run nixpkgs#sbctl -- create-keys
+```
+
+2. import `modules/nixos/lanzaboote.nix` in the host's `configuration.nix`, rebuild and check the signatures
+```bash
+$ sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#host_name
+# EFI/Linux/*.efi and the bootloader must be signed, kernels in EFI/nixos
+# are not, lanzaboote checks them by hash
+$ sudo sbctl verify
+```
+
+3. reboot once with Secure Boot still disabled, to make sure the new entries boot
+
+4. in the firmware (F2), erase all Secure Boot keys, then boot nixos again
+```bash
+# "Setup Mode: ✗ Enabled", the ✗ only means the state is insecure
+$ sudo sbctl status
+```
+
+5. enroll the keys
+```bash
+# only our own keys, no microsoft keys
+$ sudo sbctl enroll-keys
+```
+- sbctl refuses if the TPM eventlog shows option ROMs (e.g. a dedicated gpu).
+  Don't force it, either trust exactly those with `--tpm-eventlog` or
+  microsoft's keys with `--microsoft`. Without either, the firmware may not
+  start the device, in the worst case the machine doesn't boot at all.
+- Check what sbctl found first, a real option ROM has a PCI device path:
+```bash
+$ sudo nix shell nixpkgs#tpm2-tools -c tpm2_eventlog /sys/kernel/security/tpm0/binary_bios_measurements | grep -A14 "EV_EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DRIVER"
+```
+- Paths starting with `0407` (firmware volume) are drivers from the firmware
+  itself, not option ROMs (e.g. on the ThinkPad). `--tpm-eventlog` trusts
+  exactly those, after a firmware update they may need to be enrolled again
+  (disable Secure Boot, `sbctl enroll-keys --tpm-eventlog`)
+- Without an integrated gpu (argon), the gpu's option ROM draws the firmware
+  setup too, use `--microsoft` there, a refused gpu means no picture at all
+- On the Framework (krypton), keep the firmware's built-in OEM certificates
+  with `--firmware-builtin`, vendor firmware updates may need them. If an
+  update fails or the keys were enrolled without them, erase the keys in the
+  firmware again (Setup Mode) and re-enroll:
+```bash
+$ sudo sbctl enroll-keys --firmware-builtin
+```
+
+6. enable Secure Boot in the firmware and set a firmware password, then check
+```bash
+$ bootctl status | grep "Secure Boot"   # enabled (user)
+$ sudo sbctl status                     # Secure Boot: ✓ Enabled
+```
+- If it doesn't boot anymore, disabling Secure Boot in the firmware boots as before
+- Losing the keys isn't fatal: erase the keys in the firmware and start over at step 1
+
+## how to unlock the disk with the tpm (laptops)
+Needs Secure Boot first. The TPM releases the key only with the PIN and while
+the Secure Boot state (PCR 7) is unchanged. The passphrase stays as fallback.
+
+1. enroll the TPM with a PIN as an additional key slot
+```bash
+# asks for the current passphrase, then the new PIN
+$ sudo systemd-cryptenroll --tpm2-device=auto --tpm2-pcrs=7 --tpm2-with-pin=yes /dev/disk/by-label/nixcrypt
+```
+
+2. import `modules/nixos/tpm-unlock.nix` in the host's `configuration.nix`, rebuild and reboot
+
+- If the passphrase is suddenly asked for instead of the PIN, the Secure Boot
+  state changed. After a firmware update that's expected, otherwise investigate
+  before typing the passphrase. To re-enroll:
+```bash
+$ sudo systemd-cryptenroll --wipe-slot=tpm2 --tpm2-device=auto --tpm2-pcrs=7 --tpm2-with-pin=yes /dev/disk/by-label/nixcrypt
 ```
